Dark Sky Series

Crimson Sky, #1

Midnight Sky, #2

In the post-apocalyptic
steampunk-fantasy setting of DARK SKY, a young engineer who struggles to repair
a failure of the past, and to ensure a safe future for those she loves by
freeing it from hellish monsters bent on revenge...

Ten years ago, vampiric beasts called Hellions
invaded the city of Westraven and decimated it with fangs, claws, and
cannon-fire. Now, survivors live underground and sustain themselves with the
scraps left behind, often under the cruel fist of self-made leaders and
grounded sky-pirates. Living under such rule is Claire, a talented young
engineer working only to ensure e a life for her sister, Abigail. When Abby is
kidnapped by the Hellions, Claire becomes desperate and finds herself allying
with marauders– hot-tempered pirates equally as dangerous as the Hellions
themselves.

As Claire forges a shaky relationship with them
and their cynical young captain, she unearths truths about her past she could
never have imagined, and realizes that the only way to protect those she loves
is by challenging the Hellions head-on, an endeavour that could see the end of
the Hellions once and for all, or secure their
reign once and for all...

The Love and Bond of sisters. The depths of
what one would endure to make sure that the other sister was safe. Claire and
Abby had a bond that would be tested and pushed to the limits of love and
bonds. Their world and their lives changed the day that the skies above were
shattered hell became a daily routine. The Hellions emerged and life for the
sisters would never be the same again.

This read was a mixture of all the things that
I love in read. It was full to the brim with fantasy, sci-fi, steampunk mechanics.
The world was diverse, vast, and vivid. This ya dystopia was appealing and
captivating with its dangers, betrayals, test of loyalties, pirates, creatures,
strength of one self. Claire was a very strong and capable young woman. She
took a stand and did not let much step in her way. She had to save her sister
and she let nothing and no one deter her from the goal she had. As the scope of
things become clearer. Claire has to put on the fight of her world not just for
the love of her sister and her safety but for the world itself.

You will not be lacking for entertainment. With
Vampires, pirates, humans, a steampunk mixture, a touch of sci-fi, paranormal,
and maybe just maybe a little beginning of a romance. What will be next in the
great adventure?

Ten years ago, the sky shattered and the Hellions emerged. No one was able to
keep them from destroying the city of Westraven. Now that the bloodthirsty
monsters rule the skies and have forced the few remaining humans underground,
Claire Abernathy lives in a nightmare. She survives by using her skills as an
engineer for a ruthless tyrant connected to her mother and father’s past
failure.

Then Claire’s world is torn apart when her sister Abby is kidnapped by the
Hellions, and Claire herself is taken by dangerous sky pirates known as
marauders. But Claire will not be intimidated by them while her sister’s life
hangs by a thread, and so she strikes a deal with them: If they help rescue
Abby, she will fix their ship and give them the chance to take the revenge they
desperately seek.

As Claire fights for her sister’s life, she begins to realize that the Hellions
are not the only dangers she’ll face. Burdensome secrets and devastating
betrayals threaten her at every turn, and if she loses herself to them, it
won’t just be her life that is destroyed…

Claire’s quest continues and it has grown and
have become even more clouded with secrets, betrayals, sacrifices and a
possible triangle that could change more than what should be changed. Here we
are back at the fight to make a wrong right again or at least make it better.
Young Claire has her hands full with all that must be done to put the world
back on a path cleared for the human race.

I found more drama, more action, more deceit,
more betrayals, more secrets, just more. I was pulled in and wanting to know
what was next. I turned each page excited to find what was held within.

Claire continues to move forward in life and
make the decisions that need to be made to move them on to the next big step.
Along the way she has to contend with her sister and a promise to her mother.
There are outside forces working against her and her rag-tag group of misfits.

This time around I focused in on all the
secondary character that were there before and newly introduced. I found more
to be held captive by. Claire was most certainly a strong-willed, abled body
female. She did what it took to do what needed to be done. I am looking forward
to where things go to next and how the overall plot connects, grow, and
conclude.

BLURB

There are secrets, there
are betrayals, and there are sacrifices…

The Behemoth has been destroyed, and the bloodthirsty Hellions seem to have
left Westraven. But Claire Abernathy’s mind is not at ease. A terrible disease
plagues her sister, appearing to have been brought on the Vesper, the leader of
the Hellions beyond the tear between worlds– the Breach.

To save Abby and stop the Hellions for good, Claire must find the machine her
parents built before the attacks, and fix it before the monsters return. To do
so, she needs the help of her crew, and must ignore the secrets and rivalries
between her captain and the man she saved.

Because the Hellions are not the only dangers following Claire. Twisted humans
and old enemies surface to stop her and destroy all she loves. While she is
determined to endure the trials, a single betrayal could shatter the hope of a
better world, and force Claire to make a choice that will cost her dearly…
